  • Assessing Quality Of mRNA Vaccines: Key Considerations

    To address the need for standards for mRNA vaccines, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) has convened vaccine experts to identify important quality attributes and to propose test methods that can be used to assess mRNA vaccine products. This article shares those CQAs and analytical procedure tips.

  • Addressing Challenges In Serialization For Complex Therapeutics

    The magnitude of serialization, especially for firms with extensive portfolios and intricate supply chains, poses serious challenges. This discussion offers solutions.

  • Beyond The Gold Standard(s): Modernizing Oligonucleotide Synthesis

    A few weeks ago, I had the chance to sit down with OPT Congress speaker Phil Baran, Richard Lerner Chair Professor, Department of Chemistry, Scripps Research. Baran was slated to (and did) present a keynote on the innovations shaping the next generation of oligo synthesis. Here, I share the biggest takeaways I had from our conversation, touching on how he sees the science of oligo chemistry and manufacturing advancing in the near and far future. 

  • How Can We Move RNA Forward In Our Therapeutics Arsenal?

    RNA technologies, including mRNA therapeutics, have emerged as a promising drug modality. However, they have unique challenges. BioPhorum has dedicated a team to investigate these challenges and this Q&A shares their practical considerations for how to move this field forward.

  • Picasso, Pick-Up Lines, & Personalized Medicine: mRNA's Path Forward

    Overall, my presentation on what the mRNA industry can learn from the artist Picasso singled out a few specific areas from which I felt our industry could garner greater inspiration and operational prowess. But given how “collaborative” many of these sources of inspiration are, I’ve introduced each of my takeaways with a surprisingly relevant (albeit bad) art-themed pick-up line. After all, if there’s one sector that knows it takes more than one to “tango,” it’s the mRNA industry.

  • Innovations In The Oligonucleotide Supply Chain: Regulatory Considerations For Materials, Manufacturing, And Lifecycle Control

    Oligonucleotide therapeutics have rapidly advanced into late-stage and commercial development, shifting regulatory focus toward the maturity of manufacturing and supply chain control rather than therapeutic novelty. Regulatory success now depends on how effectively sponsors translate innovative chemistries into well-characterized, scalable, and sustainable materials and processes.

In this final segment of an Advancing RNA Live discussion, panelists April Sena, Tyler Goodwin, and Adi Nair share the most meaningful and manageable improvements the industry can be making today to upstream and downstream processes to drive down mRNA-LNP COGS.In this final segment of an Advancing RNA Live discussion, panelists April Sena, Tyler Goodwin, and Adi Nair share the most meaningful and manageable improvements the industry can be making today to upstream and downstream processes to drive down mRNA-LNP COGS.

In this Bioprocess Online Live panel, we discuss two experts' perspectives on the current state of the mRNA supply chain for critical raw materials and manufacturing supplies and where pain points still exist.

As our molecules grow more complicated, so, too, does the supply chain. Here, Advancing RNA Live speakers Khaled Yamout & Camp4’s Satya Kuchimanchi talk through how this growth challenges our understanding of raw material quality and how sponsors can better assess their suppliers.
